Re: What does Einweisung mean from an aviation standpoint?

Norbert,

In France we start the flight when we start the engine and we stop it when, back on parking, we stop the engine.
We don't use to count a flight when Rolling the plane from parking back to hangar ... And the contrary early in the morning ... I liked to do that when Young pupil.

Since I'm in China I can't send you my log which is in Italy if you want to check I'm really a pilot.
Did I say that one makes a flight "whilst sitting in an aircraft on the ground" or is it just an effect of "German heavy humour"?

To come back on what I effectively wrote concerning some LW flight logs I read, space's so short between two flights I wonder how the guy was able to finish his landing, close his flight and to come back to his starting point for another, different, flight.

Hence, when doing that - in France - the time passed on roll - engine on - was counted as "a flight". Which doesn't seem to be the case.

Clear? Got it?
